We are open for business!  This new facility houses over 10 city departments and provides one-stop services for utility customers and the general public. All City Council, Planning & Zoning Commission, the Historic Landmark Commission and the Zoning Board of Adjustments meetings are now held in the building located at 447 N. Main Street. 

Background
